Nvidia G-Sync—the company’s proprietary anti-tearing frame-sync feature—isn’t just for monitors anymore. To be fair, it hasn’t been just for monitors for a long time. Plenty of gaming laptops and some high-end LG televisions have supported the tech since way back in 2019. Today, however, Samsung says all its new OLED displays (both Odyssey monitors and TVs) are compatible with G-Sync.

G-Sync is most useful when you’re playing a graphics-intensive game and the frame rate consistently dips below the maximum refresh rate of your screen. By syncing the refresh of the display to the frames being output by your PC—meaning the refresh rate itself dips lower as needed—you get a smoother visual experience without tearing. G-Sync is a proprietary version of tech that’s sometimes called variable refresh rate. (AMD’s version, which is open to almost any display, is called FreeSync.)

Samsung says that the new Odyssey OLED gaming monitors for 2026 will support G-Sync, which no longer needs dedicated hardware on the monitor side. That flexibility also lets it work with 2026 Samsung OLED TVs, with the S85H, S90H, and S95H announced at CES 2026 all highlighted. Depending on the specific model and size, the refresh rates of these OLED TVs are between 120Hz and 160Hz.

There have always been PC gamers who hooked up their desktops or laptops to living room TVs, and more than a few use smaller high-end TVs as alternatives to large monitors. But methinks the trend is on the rise, especially since devices like the Steam Deck and its various handheld alternatives are so easy to dock to TVs and turn into big-screen gaming machines. The second-gen Steam Machine expected in a few months (with an AMD GPU, so FreeSync instead of G-Sync) could bring even more attention to PC games on bigger TVs.
